RIP Secret & Friend

Apparently frogs do not like to be sprayed with Off, no matter how many bugs are around. Please, mom's of boys, remember this important message when your child thinks it is fun to play with frogs. Needless to say, it was not a good morning at the Jacobs' house. My animal loving oldest daughter is still crying.

RIP Secret and your little friend.

Oh no, that's so sad. It's amazing how toxic that stuff must be, even for humans, if it can kill frogs.

I'm sure there will be more frogs in your future!

Oh, the growing up parts of life. How sad yet at the same time necessary. I do love that you took pictures. :) That's great!

Oh that just breaks my heart. :(

You've got your work cut out for you, explaining that helping the frog hurt him. :(

My son was worried about the bugs near the frogs and thought he would spray Off near them like he just had sprayed on him.

It was unintentional, but they did die. Kinda frog manslaughter.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. That's so pitiful. And yet, so logical.

May you find another frog to love. And maybe you should remind him that frogs eat bugs. So they don't mind them as much as people.
